Can You Believe This Plaintiffs Want Hazleton to Pay $2.4 M in Fees?

Question by Vanessa: Can you believe this Plaintiffs want Hazleton to pay .4 M in fees?
The attorneys who successfully challenged Hazleton’s illegal immigration ordinance in federal court want the city to pay their legal fees and costs totaling close to $ 2.4 million.

A 28-page petition filed in federal court Friday blames the city for driving up the fees for the attorneys pursuing the case, who represented several of Hazleton’s Hispanic residents, landlords and community groups.

Since passing the first ordinance of its kind in July 2006, the city passed at least three additional versions of the ordinance in an attempt to improve its chances of winning the lawsuit. The often unexpected changes made the case more labor intensive and expensive, the plaintiffs argue.

“Hazleton has used this Court as its laboratory,” the fee petition reads. “Defendant’s experimentation over the past year comes at a price.”

Check with the local community colleges in your area… a lot of them have night classes (held in local high schools) that she could attend. And, if they don’t have any classes that would be available/appropriate for her needs, ask them if they know of any in your area. Good luck.
